Started this half very well.

Nice! That was a long way to go to get over the game,

If we get another goal then sub Firmino to give one of the strikers some time on the pitch? Or sub someone else and play 2 dedicated people up front?

I agree, I think the game is nice open now, so prefect for Sturridge to end his mini drought.

What a ball by Milner. Coutinho seems reluctant to shoot at times, much preferring to cut in. Could end up costing us a few decisive goals.

I think he just thought Can had a better chance. which he would have had he not been ring rusty

[Chris Stott]

Some sublime pass and move tonight. Really enjoyable to watch.

[type-r]

I knew it!! From nowhere...

[Flip Martian]

Well that's us off the top already. We should have taken them apart by now.

[skeeterm5]

How is our keeper an improvement on Mings?

[pinchmeimdreamin]

It was a nice 30 minutes

[type-r]

Has 2-2 written on this now.

Opps.

If we'd had normal Sturridge on then it we'd probably have got a few more goals with the chances we have had. However it's also quite likely we wouldn't have had the chances in the first place with him on the pitch.

Time to get nervous!

Klopp trying to calm things and make sure of the 3 points now.

Karius just makes me nervous. Never really looks comfortable. But then again, neither does Mings. How's Ward getting on?

[jammy-git]

You have to say their keeper has had a blinder tonight, but we really should have been more clinical. If we'd take just half the really good chances we've had we'd be 3 or 4 up by now!

As he should really. 3 pts is still 3 pts. Not really fussed about being top tonight - its the pts we need.

[type-r]

Victory. 3 points. Joint top. I'll take that.

[Flip Martian]

Game over 2-1. 2nd place overnight on GD. That'll do.

[jammy-git]

It's the three points that matter, no pressure from being top either.

[pinchmeimdreamin]

Joint top is good enough, broke a team down set to defend and could/should have won easily.

Downside, still look dodgy at the back..
